In this enlightening conversation, we sit down with Mars, a dedicated practitioner of Curanderismo, the ancient healing tradition deeply rooted in the wisdom of her Indigenous Nahuat Pipil ancestors from El Salvador. Mars shares her journey of the past five years, where she immersed herself in the teachings of various elders and traditions across Central and South America, honing her craft as a traditional folk herbalist. As a teacher, Mars is passionate about passing down the sacred knowledge she's gained, offering courses, workshops, and mentorships to her community. Throughout our discussion, Mars illuminates the importance of reclaiming our ancestral practices and embracing our heritage as a pathway to healing. She speaks to the innate healing abilities within each individual and the transformative power of connecting with the wisdom of our ancestors. Join us as we explore the profound insights and ancient wisdom with Mars, and discover how to awaken the power of ancestral healing in your own life.
